Utopia or Dystopia?

Do you believe the future will be better or worse than the present? How do movies and books usually portray the future? What will the future be like?

In movies and books, the future is often depicted as a whole new age full of amazing technology, such as hovercrafts, time machines, and talking robots that run errands. As people expand their knowledge and understanding of the world, more advanced inventions are created to fit their needs. However, this does not mean that things will turn out to be the best for us in the upcoming future. The more technology invented, the less active people become. There are chances that we will realize our limits as we move along, but seeing that most humans are greedy, the limits may not make a difference at all. The new inventions would make our lives easier, and would place more money into our pockets but at the same time can ruin our bodies as well as our environment. I can imagine anything being possible in the future-- maybe people travelling in flying cars underneath a polluted sky. All good things have a bad side, all ideas have flaws.
